BT Mini Receiver

My good old friend John Irvine called me the other day . He has got an Dell Inspiron D530S with Windows Vista on it. He has got a 9-in-1 Media Card reader with Bluetooth Support. He recently reinstalled Windows Vista on the system and then the required Dell Drivers in teh following sequence :

Chipset Drivers , Audio Drivers , Video Drivers , Network Drivers , Media Card Reader Drivers . Now everytime he restarts the system , Windows prompts my friend to install the driver for an unknown device by the name of BT MIni Receiver. He gets the same name once he goes to Device Manager where the BT Mini Receiver sits under Unknown device. My friend has confirmed that he has got no USB Bluetooth dongle ( Logitech) as what the name BT MIni Receiver suggested when we googled it .

I owe my friend 1000 pounds and now if I can help him in this juncture he would surely forget that and lemme go free .... hehehe ... please help me

I've been over forums for an hour now trying to solve this problem.. when i came across a very easy and simple solution, I just got the new Logitech DiNivo Edge, and i spent a handsome bulk of money for this beast, but when i found out that the dongle doesnt act as a BT reciever i was nothing but pissed..

so heres what i found out:

from my past hour of what was seemingly pointless surfing with my hand on my cheek i found out that there are two modes the dongle works in. Embedded and HCI. and by default the embedded is working.. which emulates a USB device so it seems to your PC that your using a normal USB mouse/keyoard.. so i was looking for a way to get the other mode to work by reading tutorials\installing drivers and what not... with no luck

so i was reading comments on one of the many "How-to" 7+ page tutorials and one person (Credit goes to him) wrote if you hold the little red Button on the USB BT mini-receiver it will enable the other mode, i took the BT dongle out pushed the button and plugged it back in, i held it for about 5 seconds.

and guess what... It worked!

hope this works for all of you... a simple solution to a stupid problem... and logitech could have prevented this inconvenience by documenting this information somewhere...
